WW3: A Price To Pay

The Snake, The Devil, and The Wolf

Ulf's P.O.V

it was close to an hour before we were to take off when i got a feeling i hadn't in a very long time.

everything around me went dark while it felt like a snake was constricting me and then it disapears as fast as it happens.

I stand there wide eyed until Shepard puts his hand on my shoulder and from instinct i grab his hand and flip him over my shoulder.

S: argh, What the hell was that for?

U: Sh-Shepard? Oh shit, Sorry about that.

S: what was that? you looked like you were in a trance.

U: I, ah, Nagisa?

S: what?

U: i need to check on something real quick.

i dashed to the top of the carrier and launched into the air heading towards Japan.

I landed in a street where i felt the feeling comming from and saw nothing at first but heard someone banging on a window behind me and turned around to see a black Camaro driving away with a gas in the back seat and i just barely caught a glimpse of blue in the gas.

U: NAGISA!!!!!

i charge after the camaro and reach it in no time and rip the door off of the camaro and pull the driver out of the seat and then grab the wheel to stop it from crashing and destroy all of the windows in the camaro letting the gas out.

after the gas clears i realise that both Nagisa and Karma are in the camaro.

i pull over and start shaking Nagisa.

U: Nagisa. Nagisa wake up.

N: uh, eh?

U: Nagisa, it's me Ulf.

N: ulf? wha, where am i?

U: you and Karma got kidnapped, i rescued you 2 after you sent that snake aura at me.

N: wha? i didn't-

suddenly the car starts to get riddled with bullets as i slam on the gas and tell Nagisa to wake Karma.

[U: damn it, with the door ripped open like this i'm an easy target. and the broken glass make Karma and Nagisa easy targets as well. damn it!]

K: Ulf? what the hell?

U: not right now Karma, currently being shot at.

K: and why the hell are you driving the car we got kidnapped in?

U: saved your life and stoll the car you were in so i wouldn't have to drag the 2 of you.

K: ha ha.

i pull the car into a drift as we took a corner.

U: both of you grab my shoulder.

K,N: got it.

as they touched my right shoulder they teleported to the medical airship to get treated from the gas and i teleported to the Normandy just as it was taking off leaving the Camaro to crash into a wall.

J: thought you weren't going to make it.

U: yeah well you know me.

S: always fashionably late.

U: no, maybe, yeah ok.

J: well it doesn't matter what time you get here but that you are here.

S: joker, set course for Saturn.

J: you got it.

U: Shepard. where's my team?

S: they're in the lounge. i'm sure you know where that is.

U: yeah, i know where it is.

i head down to the lounge and find everyone including Shepards team sitting in the lounge talking to each other.

everyone quieted down as soon as i entered.

U: we'll wait for Shepard then i'll start the meeting, you can keep talking for now.

they all went back to they're conversations and i went to a terminal in the corner of the room.

U: we've got a few hours, i should go take a nap.

i head to the elevator which recognized me and opened the small fridge in the corner assing me a bottle of Vodka, i down the entire bottle and some how in my drunken state ended up in Shepard's capin and flopped down in her bed.

~2 hours later~

i'm awoken to being shaken and i open my eyes to Gareth in his armour shaking me awake

U: uh, do i even want to ask what happened?

G: probably not.

U: why only me.

G: well, if it makes you feel better Zyler woke up with Shepard and Liara.

U: *deep breath* how far from Saturn?

G: E.D.I said we'll be landing in 5 minutes. don't worry, they already took care of the breifing.

U: thanks.

i got out of the bed and got dressed then dessended to the war room to check the map of jupiter when a red beam streaked across the Normandy ripping it in half and injuring my left leg and right arm.

U: ah shit. so much for landing.

I jumped out of the massive hole in the Normandy and spotted The T.A.R.D.I.S and dove for it. i grabbed the key Sylar gave me, unlocked it and jumpped inside. as soon as i hit the console it took off and i passed out.
